5 Days in a Row - 1.5km a day

Friday 20th Feb
The week started at Hibiscus Sports Complex in both the outdoor 50m pool and the indoor 25m pool.  However, this morning I swam at the Griffith University Pool at Mt Gravatt, just a few mins from home.  Gorgeous 25m outdoor pool set in the bush.  No squads so a nice calm pool and so very close to home!
I swim 1km freestyle and then another 500m breaststroke/paddle/kickboard.

In Training

Friday 13th Feb
Back in Brisbane, I'm dedicated to my training.  I have trialed a new pool at Hibiscus Leisure Centre.  I also swam with a buddy this week.  Always a great motivation!

Brisbane Gal Coming Home to Sydney

Friday 30th Jan
I'm a Sydney Gal born and bred but I now live in Brisbane.  My Dad was an avid swimmer (his home pool was Cabarita) as well as a Surf Lifesaver (North Wollongong). I'm keen to swim as many Ocean Rock Pools as I can on each and every visit to Sydney when I come home to see family and friends.  So far I (in this week long visit) have ticked off:
Dee Why
Bondi Icebergs
Freshwater
Clovelly
McIver's Ladies Baths

I also did:
 Northbridge Baths (harbour)
Glenbrook (Lower Blue Mountains)

Unfortunately these don't count! 

I met a lovely fellow swimmer at Freshy this week who recommended the Ocean Rock Pool Tour. I booked retrun flight to Sydney today!

I can't wait!
